The truth is, that there are an infinite number paths, no one, no thing, EVER takes the same one. It is impossible to share a path, there is no path TO truth only paths thru it.

Hi,
Yes I too agree that there are many paths leading to the same destination. That's what makes life so exciting as we each journey along the map of Truth, sometimes veering away from others, sometimes walking alongside them on the same path and all of us striving towards the light.

That’s right…there are many paths of wisdom but only one Truth yet not all paths lead to this Truth… many paths lead deep into the ‘forests’ with the colourful butterflies of individual realities perceived as truth and many get lost in these mind-entangling forests…

Indian Wisdom:
"Ekam Sat, Vipra Bahudha Vadanti"
There is only one truth, scholars descibe that differently, And there are many paths to reach the same truth; undoubtedly.
this plurality in hindu Philosophy shall be stated through the many different techniques they had designed towards transcendence. Praying, worshipping, isjust one and a very low one among many stipulated ways of getting liberation.
For Christianity, salvation is only possible through Christ, for the Muslims, only through their prophet, etc., showing only a single p[ath as well as negating all other paths. bubt for hindus, this is entirely different, they find all paths acceptable, since they long realised that only paths are different, but the goal is always the same.
And that is why the indians welcomed the jews, welcomed Christian missionaries, and even the invading Muslims!!!

W e are from the same place but our understandings are different, I see you differently from the way you see your self. I have my path and my understanding that will one day lead me to the truth. For me to understand I must travel my own journey, as must you. Our paths may cross and our understanding may entwine, we may share and walk in the same direction for a time, and we will understand the one truth at the end of our journey but our routes will have been entirely different.

People travel on different paths in different times, and arrive at the same truth. Truths may have varied perceptions, maybe seen in different colors, but they are certainly there to serve their believers. We go places, learn new things, search answers to our questions,..and at the end of our branched walks, at that crossroad of our life, we surprisingly find that the truth we're looking for is just right there.

No, only one Path, only one Way, as ordained by God and Jesus Christ as One Spirit here for each of us.
If you persist in taking your own path, it will lead to darkness and despair.
Being moral is a start up the one ascending stairway into the Father-Infinite I AM on Paradise and this One Stairway of Light and Eternal Life is clearly shown to all of us by Jesus Christ Who is now fully here in Spirit. John 14:6 John 16:7-16

There does seem to be a settling in of multiple perceptions into an accepted rut, yet that rut has, historically, often been wrong. Think of witches, werewolves, flat earth, medical history and on. The one truth is OK as long as the possibility of error is kept in mind. The reason it usually isn't kept in mind is that it takes more brain energy to keep questions open.

Yes, but the path of truth is often less traveled.
Peace be with you.
